(M4 x 7mm) Pan Head Screws

Front Support Brackets
Rear Support Brackets
Rack Rail Slides
[NOTE] – The Rack Rail Slide is designed to sit between the rack cage and the front of the Front Support Bracket . Loosely mounting the bracket creates the space needed to insert the slide during installation. See image for an example of their alignment outside the rack.
[STEP 1] – Loosely install the Front Support Brackets using (M5 x 9mm) Black Countersink Screws in the top two holes of your chosen rack unit. Ensure both brackets are at the same height to avoid any unwanted design choices.
[STEP 2] – Slide the Rack Rail Slides between the rack cage and the front of the Front Support Brackets. Loosen the screws slightly if needed. Once in place, tighten securely.
[STEP 3] – Go around to the back. Select Rear Support Brackets with holes that reach or extend past the rear mounting holes of the Rack Rail Slides. Attach them at the same height as the front using the same (M5 x 9mm) Black Countersink Screws.
[STEP 4] – Use two (M4 x 7mm) Pan Head Screws with two (M4) Keps Nuts to attach the Rear Support Brackets to the rearmost holes of the Rack Rail Slides. Screws on the outside, nuts on the inside.
[STEP 5] – Return to the front of the rack and extend the Rack Rail Slides fully.
[STEP 6] – Press the locking button on each Rack Rail Slide and remove the innermost rail.
[STEP 7] – Mount the rails removed in Step 6 to the chassis using two (M4 x 7mm) Pan Head Screws per side. Position may vary depending on chassis size and rack depth. If it doesn’t fit flush when installed in the rack, move the rails toward the front panel.

[STEP 8] – Line up the rails on the chassis with the Rack Rail Slides and gently push them back into the guides. Press the locking button while sliding the chassis in so the rails seat fully.
[STEP 9] – Press the locking buttons again and slide the chassis fully into the rack. Congratulations, it’s contained.
Step back and admire your work. The rack is happy, the chassis is happy, and hopefully you are too.
